Matthias Niess, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-video-nouveau REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding.

According to a bugreport at redhat (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=480393) this is because of x-orgs auto-detection. When nvidias vendor-code is seen, xorg will default to nv/nouveau. Neither work on my machine. My workaround was booting from a live-cd, chrooting into the ubuntu- install and installing nvidia-current(-updates) from there.
